At Vision KC in March 2017 we sat down in the studio and recorded this very powerful interview. My guests are:

  • Jeremy O’Neal, President of Advisorfix

    Winters, Capriotto, O’Neal, Bohnert

  • Jeremy Winters, Service Manger Weavers Auto Center
  • Jason Bohnert, President Show Me Auto Mall

Talking points:

  • What happens when an employee goes sideways and their performance dips?
  • It is tough to hold an employee accountable if you haven’t given the proper training and don’t have great processes.
  • What kind of benefits fall to the bottom line with service adviser training?
  • If hiring a business coach, consultant or trainer, be sure that your values align.
  • Common theme of a strong business culture.
  • Be sure you allow your employees to challenge your thinking. Teams Win.
  • How do you know you have good systems and processes?

    Show Me Auto Mall

  • Techs from Weaver’s Auto Center that go to Vision KC, must give a two hour class to their peers at the shop.
  • Weavers Auto Center is documenting their processes on video: Why?
    • When you see it visually it has more impact.
    • Takes less time to record a four-minute video than to write a 300 page manual
    • Building a digital library on their SOPs and processes makes it easy to train and coach new and current team members.
    • They are building their own internal Learning Management System.
  • Weavers Auto Center customer experience:
    • The client experience comes first.
    • They have a book club with discussion.
    • Waiting room has no resemblance to automotive repair.
    • Have a lending library of success books.
  • Weavers Auto Center allows their Service Advisers 45 minutes with each customer.
  • Human Behavior. Using the DISC assessment for personal development and for hiring decisions.
  • There is a big shift in the industry. Customers will give loyalty to shops they trust and to solve their transportation issues.
  • Find great ideas and make them their own.
  • Vision KC received high praises from both shops.
